Patient's question:
My little girl is 5 years old. At first, she said that even drinking water with her throat felt painful. She was also found to have severe coughing and accompanied by low fever. Please ask: How should children with tonsillitis and fever have a reasonable diet?Doctor's answer:
If a child suffers from tonsillitis, it is very necessary to seek medical attention immediately. At the same time, parents should also pay attention to giving their child more vegetables and fruits, as many fruits have the effect of clearing heat and detoxifying, and are rich in vitamins, which can help improve immunity and resist diseases. We generally recommend choosing fruits that are neutral in nature and rich in vitamins, such as kumquats or kiwis. In terms of dietary choices, it is best to opt for easily digestible options, such as congee or noodles, which are both good choices. At the same time, never give the child any "trigger foods," such as seafood or dog meat, as these can be detrimental to the condition. Children with tonsillitis may experience some complications, which can be very harmful to their health. Therefore, parents must ensure that their child receives proper treatment.
